Case Study:
A Leading Commercial Aircraft Parts Manufacturer
A multi-billion-dollar aircraft parts manufacturer with an increase in business production capacity was able to improve their liquidity and support a wider network of suppliers with a Supply Chain Finance program from Raistone.
How Raistone supported a client’s supply chain with over $200M in invoices purchased
A major airplane parts manufacturer sought a supplemental Supply Chain Finance (SCF) program to complement its existing bank-led SCF program. Under the bank program, the manufacturer was limited to onboarding only suppliers that met a specific annual spend threshold. The existing provider was also unable to onboard several foreign suppliers, leaving the company with no way to take full advantage of their increased capacity.
By leveraging a working capital program through Raistone, our client could support these suppliers and grow their business.
The company’s initial objectives were twofold: offer their tail spend suppliers an early payment option and open the program to some of their foreign suppliers— two key segments that were excluded from their bank-led SCF program.
Raistone was able to assist this company by purchasing $200 million in invoices from their supply chain, helping them access much-needed cash and ensuring the continued success of all parties in the highly competitive aviation manufacturing industry.
Key benefits of working with Raistone:
Complements bank supply chain finance solutions that cannot expand to all desired suppliers due to onerous supplier on-boarding processes and jurisdictional limitations.
A world-leading fintech owned by a full-service broker dealer, a $30 billion family office, a $900 billion wealth manager, and an international bank.
Improved relationship with suppliers by providing them with lower-cost financing options.
Onboarding can occur in days versus weeks or more for bank-only programs.
As a result of the program, our client freed up working capital and can service suppliers that they previously could not due to restrictions from their bank’s SCF program.
Thanks to non-debt financial solutions from Raistone, the manufacturer has already bolstered supplier relations, seen enthusiastic uptake, and improved liquidity for the company.
